Only thing in the spare foam is the micro power module an that has a little water residue inside of unless I have to change that. Or do you know if I have a ftm box or module and if yes where is it located?

I believe the FTM monitoring is part of the DSC system and is integrated into the DSC module.

First pic is the rear left wheel and the second is the rear right wheel as you can see the right side has the white colored connection by the abs sensor an the left don't so what's the name of the sensor or wiring that is white in color. That's missing an am guessing that's what's causing the problem with the rdc

Don't think so. There is an ABS sensor on each wheel. But, there is only one brake pad sensor in the rear and the other rear wheel does not have a brake pad sensor. Same for the front -- only one. That would explain why there are two wires on one side and one on the other.

Ok so what would be causing the rdc error and a3c3 code

Don't know. Tell me more. Did you just get the car? Was the error always there? Did it just come up? What happened around the time it came up? How did you go about retrieving this code a3c3? Have you read all the codes and are there other codes? Could the car have some replacement electronic parts that came from other cars?

Okay the car was hit on the rear right side and and ever since then it was giving me that error and I got the codes from inpa, and no there are no replacement parts that I can recall. Other codes I got was 5f62 a050 dad a3c3 a43e

Have you checked all the fuses? On my 2006, a lot of them live on the right side behind the trunk liner.

A43E is the KGM module. see this: KBM60 - Bavarian Technic

Post the INPA screenshots of the other codes.
